User talk:Nuclear-Fridge

Welcome

Welcome, Nuclear-Fridge, to BattleTechWiki!

We look forward to your contributions and want to help you get off to a good strong start. Hopefully you will soon join the army of BattleTech Editors! If you need help formatting the pages, visit the manual of style. For general questions go to the Help section or the FAQ. If you can't find your answer there, please ask an Admin.

Additional tips
Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the wiki:

• For policies and guidelines, see The Five Core Policies of BattleTechWiki and the BTW Policies. Another good place to check out is our market of Projects, to see how the smaller communities within BTW do things in their particular niche areas.
• Each and every page (articles, policies, projects, images, etc.) has its very own discussion/talk page, found on the tab line at the top of the page. This is a great place to find out what the community is discussing along that subject and what previous issues have already been solved.
• If you want to play around with your new wiki skills, the Sandbox is for you. Don't worry: you won't break anything. A great resource for printing out is the Wiki Cheat Sheet.
• If you're not registered, then please consider doing so. At the very least, you'll have a UserPage that you own, rather than sharing one with the community.
• Also consider writing something about yourself on your UserPage (marked as "Nuclear-Fridge" at the top of the page, though only do this if you're registered). You'll go from being a 'redshirt' to a 'blueshirt,' with the respect of a more permanent member.
  • This is really helpful for the admins, as it gives your account that touch of "humanity" that assists us in our never-ending battle with spambots.
• For your first few edits on the wiki, please do not add any URLs (which can be an indicator of SPAM).
• Consider introducing yourself on our Discord server.
• In your Preferences, under the edit tab, consider checking Add pages I create to my watchlist and Add pages I edit to my watchlist, so that you can see how your efforts have affected the community. Check back on following visits by clicking on watchlist.
• If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random button in the sidebar, or check out the List of Wanted Pages. Or even go to Special Pages to see what weird stuff is actually tracked by this wiki.
• Please sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) or by clicking on the circled button in this image; this will automatically produce your name (or IP address, if you are editing anonymously) and the date.

Again, welcome to Sarna's BattleTechWiki!

Welcome

Welcome to Sarna! Your copyedits are highly appreciated, it's a task that cannot always be gotten to. But I can't call it a thankless job, as I'm very much thanking you right now. --Rebs (talk) 06:52, 23 April 2013 (PDT)

Following on from Rebs comment above, I think you've made a good start on a never-ending task here. It's great to see someone working to improve the standard of the existing material here, and I think that's well worth giving you your first Casual Edit Award: - we'll need a mod or admin person to set up the awards board on your user profile, but as soon as they do, you'll have your first award ready to go on it. Welcome to Sarna, and keep up the good work! BrokenMnemonic (talk) 09:38, 25 April 2013 (PDT)

Thank you for the warm welcome! This is the first time I've tried to contribute to a wiki, so I'm going slowly as I (try) to pick up on the skills needed. For instance, I've been looking at introducing myself, but I just can't figure out what to do... Nuclear-Fridge (talk) 02:48, 27 April 2013 (PDT)

Then let me suggest BattleTechWiki:New user log to you. You won't get a response there but we do read them. Welcome!--Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 04:43, 27 April 2013 (PDT)

No go. I've tried to follow the instructions and post an intro... and exactly nothing happens. It's driving me crazy... Nuclear-Fridge (talk) 07:35, 1 May 2013 (PDT)

Yet you can post here, which suggests you're blocked. But I've checked and you are not. Is that the only place you cannot edit?--Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 16:35, 1 May 2013 (PDT)

- And don't forget to keep an eye on your edit count, which you can find in the user score page via the special pages link at the bottom of the tool bar on the left. Based on the way you're editing up a storm, when the edit count updates (which it does at some point every Sunday morning, UK time) you'll be over 100 edits, and eligible for your first edit award ribbon. We'll have that awards board filling up before you know it! BrokenMnemonic (talk) 00:18, 2 May 2013 (PDT)

That is the only place I can't edit: the Introductions. The problem might be at my end -- at the moment, I'm limited to a library-access computer for Internet, and it has given me a few headaches regarding other sites I frequent...

Just wanted to join the others in welcoming you to Sarna! I should warn you that starting with small copyedits like you're doing often leads to a more serious problem: Writing articles and contributing more information to existing ones. So don't be surprised if you develop a habit. --Mbear^(talk) 07:53, 2 May 2013 (PDT)

Huh. I think your warning's a little bit late, Mbear. Nuclear-Fridge (talk) 01:37, 3 May 2013 (PDT)

I like your name. It amused me when I saw it on my Watchlist. Welcome to Sarna. By the way, this is the first (and still only) wiki I've tried to edit as well. Good place to get started. GOLFisNOTaSPORT (talk) 10:52, 3 May 2013 (PDT)

I tried to think of some sort of absurd, unlikely piece of technology a supervillain might have in his volcano base... and the idea of a 'nuclear fridge', where he stores his glowing green beer came to mind...Nuclear-Fridge (talk) 01:48, 4 May 2013 (PDT)

Then it's obvious you've come to the absolutely right place. I've edited elsewhere, but this is the only place I really enjoy contributing to. There's still so many meaningful subjects that require articles. I'm on a mini-break, but I watch the pages go by and read them all. Your work makes that much more fun to do. --Rebs (talk) 12:46, 5 May 2013 (PDT)

Edit Count Awards

Based on this morning's update, you're powering your way through the Edit Count Award ribbons - you've skipped straight over the 100 award and hit the 200 award: - congratulations! Keep an eye on the awards, at this rate you're going to be racking them up fast. BrokenMnemonic (talk) 05:53, 5 May 2013 (PDT)
